the underground rive in your post is the floridian aquafer. i believe its even bigger than 72 miles. there are places in Fl where it even comes to the surface in places. but most of it is very Deep. i have heard stories of the dutchman mine since i was lil... early 70s. but the good researcher has a much higher likely hood of finding the dutchman mine that some one who just goes out and buys a fake map. i do know that b4 the Floridian property was own by the crown of england it was settled by the spanish. has changed hands several times. native american raids maid alot of the first euopean settlers uneasy... lots of them buried there stashes. and when spain owned it the money wasnt worth much so alot of businessmen traded with silver and gold. many stories of the native "savages" stealing from the colonist. Florida is very rich in history especially the jacksonville area. lots of coins and other treasures in the area... do the research and it will pay off.... and yes WELCOME TO TQ. Every one here is good people and more than willing to share tips and hints and clues to anything we can share. Happy hunting and enjoy this Forum... lots to learn and teach here

But i have heard many good things about it from people who do. the only complaint i have ever heard uttered about it is pinpointing and it may have been a beginner complaining abot it. i use the whites prizm3. but if i were gonna buy the wife or younguns a machine i do believe it would be the ACE. its simple to use and the you cant beat the price, cant beat it with a stick,
